You going OUT for Valentines Day Dinner?

We are always torn between going OUT or STAYING HOME for a romantic dinner on ANY holiday. We are convinced that the FOOD..if not the service, tends to be less on holidays, where the staff of these places KNOW they are serving the "once or twice a year" diners and not the daily regulars that keep them afloat. Likewise, we are not sure the food is as good on a Holiday, as on regular days, since on a Holiday, they KNOW you will be coming to eat, and they don't have to "win you back".
